Edited by Pernilla (KTH Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden) Hagbert, Henrik Gutzon (Lund University, Sweden) Larsen, Hakan Thorn, Cathrin (University of Gothenburg, Sweden) Wasshede
Description
This book investigates co-housing as an alternative housing form in relation to sustainable urban development.
Co-housing is often lauded as a more sustainable way of living.
The primary aim of this book is to critically explore co-housing in the context of wider social, economic, political and environmental developments.
This volume fills a gap in the literature by contextualising co-housing and related housing forms.
With focus on Denmark, Sweden, Hamburg and Barcelona, the book presents general analyses of co-housing in these contexts and provides specific discussions of co-housing in relation to local government, urban activism, family life, spatial logics and socio-ecology. This book will be of interest to students and researchers in a broad range of social-scientific fields concerned with housing, urban development and sustainability, as well as to planners, decision-makers and activists.
